Here's a few budget-friendly hall of famers...

Jeff:
Nice pick-up on the Sol White card, that's a tough one to find even though it is a modern piece. |

Some more all time Cardinals - The 68 Bazooka Brock is TUFF!!! It's the first one I've seen in several years.

McCarver
Nice McCarver David. I may have mentioned this but my favorite story about him, one he told, was him going out as a new Cardinals catcher to "settle" Gibson down after he walked a guy, and Gibson telling him, "Get back behind the plate. The only thing you know about pitching is that you can't hit it" The only thing better would have been if it was Uecker

1948 Magic Photos
David---I have the complete baseball subset of the Topps Magic Photos ( 19), plus I added the William Bendix as Babe Ruth Movie Star card. I also have a wrapper, instruction card and piece of developing paper from that issue. While many consider the 5 1951 sets or even the 1952 set to be the first Topps set, the 48 "set" starts my run

Dumb question but how difficult is it for you to not want to open the packs? Erik |

You can see the progress I'm making by clicking the link below...still have quite a few cards to scan and post, though... |

Nice ones, Matt

Hey guys........nooby here. I just discovered Net54 yesterday, and look forward to taking part in these forums.
In addition to the excitement of my Net54 account being approved, I also today received in the mail the last card I needed for my 1961 Topps set - #531 Jim Coates. Its taken me about 12 years to complete this set, so I'm a pretty happy guy! As you can see from the scan, condition isn't all that big a consideration for me. If the eye appeal is decent, and it fills an empty spot in the binder, it'll do for me! Glenn Glasgow, Scotland https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-k...ates.jpg?gl=GB |

It's been awhile. . .
Picked up these two beautiful cards recently. I have to only get 22 more cards and then the 1956 Topps Series 2 will be complete. Another small milestone.

1968
You seem like a decent guy Scott, so I am not going to hold the Tigers and 1968 against you...much ;)

Glenn-welcome!
All-not only is Glenn top notch in my book, I have actually visited him in Glasgow.....there may have been some drinks involved too! |
Hey Dave!! Yes, that was quite a night.
|
Excited

Wow, not sure how that's only a "6" grade. Very nice!
